Join the Bike Lexington Commuter Challenge

May is National Bike Month, and UK is encouraging our community to participate in the annual Bike Lexington calendar of events.

Once again this year, the Business Commuter Challenge is one of the Lexington Bike Month events. Businesses and organizations of all sizes will compete to see who can encourage the most bicycle commuting among their employees during the month of May. The University encourages all UK units to participate, and to form teams based on their departments. The winning business in each size category will receive a write-up in the July issue of Business Lexington. Prizes will be randomly awarded to the participating employees of the winning businesses, and the individual with the most trips during the Challenge will receive the Golden Cranks and a $100 gift certificate.

Each work and errand-related trip you make by bicycle counts as a trip in the Bike Lexington Commuter Challenge. Fitness and recreation rides do not count. Competition runs May 1 through May 31.
